Description
Summary:Welcome to the first video in CGIAR's Climate Impact Platform video series, where we explore the impacts of climate change on the agri-food sector. In this video, we dive into the concept of Loss and Damage (L&D) — the economic and non-economic consequences of extreme weather events like cyclones, droughts, and heatwaves. As one of the most climate-exposed sectors, agri-food systems are at the forefront of loss and damage. Watch now to learn about the impacts of climate change on agriculture, the historic UNFCCC Loss and Damage Fund, the role of science in understanding these impacts, and the urgent need for targeted climate finance to support vulnerable communities — all in the pursuit of a more food-secure and climate-resilient future for all.
